1904 Columns Museum Ghost Hunt
Step inside the eerie halls of the Columns Museum in Milford, Pennsylvania, where history and hauntings converge in one of the region’s most enigmatic locations.
This 1904 neoclassical mansion may house historic artifacts, but it also serves as the eternal home for spirits that refuse to leave. From Madame Juliette Peirce, who still roams the second-floor hallways, to strange voices and shadowy figures lurking in the basement, the Columns Museum offers an unforgettable ghost-hunting experience.
Will you come face to face with the spirits of the past, or will you leave before the night is through?
Location History
The Columns Museum, nestled in the heart of Milford, PA, was built in 1904 as a private residence. Today, it serves as the home of the Pike County Historical Society, preserving over a century of history and hosting some of America’s most significant artifacts.
Among its prized possessions is the Lincoln Flag, the blood-stained banner used as a pillow for President Abraham Lincoln after he was fatally shot at Ford’s Theatre.
Alongside the Lincoln Flag, the museum houses a collection of artifacts ranging from Lenape Indian relics to items connected to Charles Saunders Peirce, a philosopher considered the “father of pragmatism.”
Beyond its historical treasures, the museum has an eerie past. The second-floor rooms, once occupied by women and children, have witnessed strange, unexplained events, and the building itself has become a magnet for paranormal investigations.
The Hauntings
The Columns Museum is haunted by more than just memories. Among the most well-known spirits is Madame Juliette Peirce, wife of the philosopher Charles Saunders Peirce.
Visitors frequently report seeing her spirit pacing the second-floor hallways and standing at the top of the stairs. Madame Peirce was known to be deeply attached to her few remaining possessions, many of which are now housed in the museum.
It is said that she isn’t too pleased when visitors get too close, with some guests claiming they were forced to flee after a close encounter with her.
The museum is also home to a number of disembodied voices, often heard whispering through the halls or calling out from empty rooms. The basement, where a small woman has been seen lurking in the shadows, is one of the most active areas.
There are also reports of shadowy mists and figures appearing in rooms, as well as the sound of footsteps and clicking heels walking between exhibits.
One of the most chilling encounters involves a visitor who had visions of a woman falling down the attic stairs, while a man stood at the top in disbelief—a haunting scene that continues to repeat itself for those sensitive to the paranormal.

Reviews
Did the Battleship North Carolina on April 3rd. I've already booked again for August. The hosts (Both physical and spiritual) were amazing. Recorded several EVP's throughout the night. Some very strong responses with dousing rods. Always skeptical about them, but there were strong responses, especially when we started talking to them like the military members they were. At one point I asked if they wished they had women on Battleships, he replied with a strong "Yes" and my Ghost Box replied with the word "Seductive". He really liked one of the young ladies with us. Turns out she was 18 and he was 20 when he died. Can't wait to do this again!
Just did a tour with this group on the Battleship North Carolina. Absolutely wonderful experience!! My husband and I will definitely be booking again. The leaders are super nice, respectful, and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!!
Just finished our VIP overnight at Hotel Metropolitan in Paducah! Ms. Venita and Julie were the absolute best! They both made sure we knew what we were doing with equipment, and gave us a fantastic guided tour and explained the history so well. Venita especially made an impression on my group. She is super friendly and definitely knows what she's doing. Can't wait to see her again! I wouldn't want anyone else!
My dad, my sister-in-law, and I stayed at The Metropolitan for a paranormal investigation, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of history — but what made our stay exceptional was the incredible staff, Julie and Venita. These two amazing women went above and beyond the entire time we were there. They walked us through all the investigation equipment, helped guide us throughout the night, and made us feel completely comfortable and right at home. Their hospitality was top-notch — from the snacks and drinks they provided to the delicious hot chocolate they made for us during our late-night exploring. Their kindness, patience, and passion for what they do turned our stay into something truly special. If you’re looking for a place filled with charm, comfort, and staff who genuinely care, The Metropolitan Hotel is the perfect choice. Our overnight stay exceeded every expectation. Highly recommend! I wouldn't want anyone else to tour with!! 👻✨🍫
My son and I went to belles grove plantation and it was the best time! We enjoyed everything! Miss V was great! We got a few pictures of something in the windows and I actually started crying which I NEVER would let my son see me cry! It was kinda spooky but awesome at the same time! The team is great and I highly recommend going on one of their tours! Thank u all for a great experience
I had an amazing experience with Haunted Rooms America at the Belle Grove Plantation in King George, VA. The staff was very informative and helpful explaining the various pieces of equipment.
We had such a great experience at the Metropolitan Hotel in Paducah Kentucky. 10/10 would recommend.
Super fun evening! would definitely recommend doing anything they are offering.
